I used to believe babies came from the supermarket.

I used to believe that babies grew in gardens...similar to cabbage patch kids only they hadn't been invented yet.

When I was little, I used to believe that once a couple got married, they sat down together and prayed for however many children they wanted and then the wife randomly got pregnant until they had all their babies. Because of this, I wondered how Atheists had babies.

When I was about 5 going on 6 my Mom had my little brother, so I asked her where did he come from, well being so young she told me he was a gift from God, and that she prayed really hard. So until I was old enough to truly understand, I used to believe that all you had to do was go to the hospital and pray to have a baby and you would get one. Back then I always wondered why she always prayed for boys, I don't have any sisters.

Whenever a T.V. show came on with the topic where do babies come from, I used to think I was the smartest kid casue I knew babies really came from eggs in the Mother's belly.

I used to believe that people made babies by making out, and never dreamed of a penis going anywhere near a vagina.

i used to believe that if you put a piece of pop corn in water, in the morning there would be a baby.. i think it was because of something a friend told me..

When I was in kindergarten, a boy in my class told me that girls didn't have penises because they got cut off in a war. I believed him for the longest time until I asked my mother about it one day and she just laughed at me.

When I was 6 I asked my Nan how you made babies and so she bought me a book to save explaining. In it, it said that when a man gets excited 'he turns hard like stone'. It took me a good few years to realise it was just one part of the man and not the whole of him. I pictured all these sexually excited men stuck like statues!

I was the last child my parents wanted, so when I was about 3 years old, my dad got "fixed." Because of that, he couldn't pick me up for a while. To explain why he couldn't pick me up, my parents told me he got a shot so they wouldn't have any more babies. I am now 20, and just the other day I was talking to my mom about my fiance getting the "shot" after we had 2 kids. She then laughed hysterically and explained that there was more to it than that.

When my mom was teaching me about sex she said about how the father puts his "seed" in the mother and I pictured like an actual seed like for a plant would come out of his penis and thought it sounded painful

When I was around 6-7, I would often watch the grinch, and it showed how Babies came from umbrellas in the sky, so that was always how I used to think people had babies... I found out how people actually had babies when I was around 8. (I'm 13 now ^^)

I thought that girls would poop and they could choose any poop to become a baby, and they would do something to it and it would become a baby. I didn't know about sex yet.

I was born a poop

I used to believe that there are 2 steps to have a child. First a couple need to be married. Then they need to kiss each other at a period of time. When the amount of kissing is enough, the baby will bursted in the air and fall into your hands. (Guess I played The Sims too much :D)

When a friend of mine was little, he used to think that babies came from supermarkets.

When I first learned about sex, I didn't associate it with procreation. I thought babies occurred randomly and if a woman didn't get married quick enough when she grew up, she'd have a baby randomly without a man. And that is where single mother's come from!
